Last week was a busy one for the Ever After team. On Wednesday and Thursday the IOV had their yearly convention ProVideo at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, in fact it was the 25th anniversary of the IOV. We ran 2 seminars, both on some of my favourite subjects: audio and vintage lenses. After our Thursday seminar, we travelled further down south towards Surrey to meet up with Emma and James.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a livelier and upbeat church rehearsal! Emma and James were clearly eager to get married and looking forward to a day of celebrations. An October wedding always carries the risk of rain with it, but Emma and James has a perfectly gorgeous autumn day with the rain holding off until late at night. After a their service in the idyllic St Mary’s Church in Datchet, the reception was held at the Wenthworth Club, Viginia Waters in Surrey. Karin, the coordinator, made sure that every little detail was perfect and indeed it was! The team at the Wenthworth Club was an example of efficiency and service. Kenan, the banqueting manager made sure we were looked after.

Magaret and her team from the ChairDressing Company together with Firebird Events made the room look exquisite as you’ll notice in the clip below. We worked alongside David and Ann from WardPhotoArt who were the photographers of the day. It was a pleasure working alongside them and I had a great time chatting in the down time. Sylvia on the other hand was very busy editing the Same Day Edit which we screened during the band’s break.

On a separate note, we just received an email from ‘the Bridal Magazine’ to let us know we’ve been shortlisted for their annual ‘Wedding Videographer of the Year’-award. To be quite honest, we had no idea anyone had put us forward, so whoever you were : Thank you!
